The Aubrey Peak Wilderness is a 15,400-acre (6,230 ha) wilderness administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). The wilderness is located in northwest Arizona in the southwest of Mohave County, a region of the southeastern Mojave Desert's extension into northwest Arizona.

The other wilderness is on both sides of the river, the Rawhide Mountains Wilderness; the section south of the river is in the northeast of the Buckskin Mountains, and the southeast of the Rawhides. The Buckskin Wilderness is on the western border of Alamo Lake, of Alamo Lake State Park.
